I'd love nothing better than for the Mystics to land a 6'6"-6'7"
center - and they are out there. The trouble is finding a player with
that height that can also walk and chew gum at the same time. The #1
and the #5 are the hardest postions fo fill. Right now the Mystics
have not one, but two outstanding PGs.

The FO tried real hard to get a top tiered #5 but was not successful.
We will have Chas (and my guess is Sanford), which is not great but not
bad either. Not many teams have a dominating center. Several teams
end up using a converted PF as a #5 cause the PF is better than any
true #5 they can find. The sun made it to the finals with a converted
PF playing the #5. Yo at Sac is not much bigger than most PFs. Chas
outplaye Snow in Saturday's game, IMO. It's not a lost cause.
